Course Description
To become a Lean Supply Chain Professional, you need to first become a Lean thinker and Lean problem solver. That is the core purpose of this course. Students will be introduced to Lean Thinking and critical Lean concepts. In addition, students with become proficient problem solvers through gained skills of waste identification and use of fundamental problem solving tools to eliminate waste at the root cause.
This first module is a pivot point in the educational process and this is where current mental models and business paradigms will be challenged. Students will learn and train to see operations from a new vantage point. Upon arrival back to the workplace, students will be able to "talk" the talk of Lean and also have a keen eye for operational waste. However, the real test of this course is when the student can "walk" the lean walk and solve business problems at the root cause, completely eliminating the problem for the organization.

- Reduce total cost of ownership
